Resumo: | Leonel Brizola, a prominent “trabalhista” politician, was part of the first generation of refugees exiled by the military dictatorship that took command of the country in 1964. Viewed as one of the most important enemies of the authoritarian regime, Brizola was forced to exile for 15 years. During this period, he lived in two countries: Uruguay between 1964 and 1978 and Portugal in 1978 and 1979. Unlike what is stipulated by the international legislation on asylum and refuge, and what the military expected, Brizola acted politically in these two countries. However, historical records of his political activity indicate relevant transformations in regards to repertoires of action after each one of his migrations. Hence, while there are historical sources of adherence to the armed strategies in Uruguay, Brizola committed himself to act politically through the traditional channels in Portugal to initiate the resurgence of the Brazilian Labor Party (PTB). Based on a historical process analysis, this article aims to understand the relation of these transformations to the metamorphosis of the structure of political opportunities imposed by exile. To do so, it analyzes a variety of documents – interviews with Brazilian exiles and Uruguayan politicians who welcomed Leonel Brizola in exile, periodicals, and diplomatic documentation open for research. Thus, we hope to present a contribution to the understanding of Brizola's trajectory and to = exile as a political space, as well as its specificities for members of political elites. |

Como uno de losprincipalesenemigosdelrégimenautoritario, Brizola se vioobligado a permanecer exiliado enelextranjero durante 15 años. Durante este período, vivió principalmente en dos países: Uruguay entre 1964 y 1978 y Portugal en1978 y 1979. Contrarioa lo previsto enlalegislación de asilo y refugio, y contrario a loque esperabanlos militares, Brizola actuópolíticamenteenestos dos países. Sin embargo, los registros de suactuación política indican relevantes transformacionesencuanto a repertorios de accióndespués de cada migración vivida. Sin embargo, aunqueexisten registros de adhesión a lasestrategias militares en Uruguay, Brizola se empeñóenactuarpolíticamente através de canalestradicionales, intentando dar inicio alresurgimientodel Partido Laborista Brasileño (PTB). Con base enunanálisis histórico procesal, el presente artículo pretende comprenderlarelación de esastransformacionesconlametamorfosis de laestructura de oportunidades políticas impuesta por el exilio. Para ello, analiza documentos variados, entre loscuales destacamos las entrevistas conex-exiliados y políticos uruguayos que acogierona Leonel Brizola enel exilio, así como periódicos y documentación diplomática abierta para investigación. De esta forma, se espera presentar una contribución para lacomprensión de latrayectoria de Brizola y el exilio como unespacio político, así como sus especificidades para losmiembros de lasélites políticas.Leonel Brizola, importante político trabalhista, fez parte da primeira geração de exilados pela Ditadura militar que assumiu o comando do país em 1964. Visto como um dos principais inimigos do regime autoritário, Brizola se viu forçado a permanecer exilado no exterior durante 15 anos. Nesse período, viveu principalmente em dois países: Uruguai entre 1964 e 1978 e Portugal, em 1978 e 1979. Diferente do que é previsto na legislação sobre asilo e refúgio, e do que esperavam os militares, Brizola atuou politicamente nesses dois países. Porém, os registros de sua atuação política indicam relevantes transformações quanto a repertórios de ação após cada migração vivida. Assim, enquanto existem registros de adesão à estratégias armadas no Uruguai, em Portugal, Brizola se empenhou em atuar politicamente por meio dos canais tradicionais para dar início ao ressurgimento do Partido Trabalhista Brasileiro (PTB). Com base em uma análise histórico processual, o presente artigo visa compreender a relação dessas transformações com a metamorfose da estrutura de oportunidades políticas imposta pelo exílio. Para tanto, analisa documentos variados, dentre os quais destacamos as entrevistas com ex-exilados e políticos uruguaios que acolheram Leonel Brizola no exílio, bem como periódicos e a documentação diplomática aberta para pesquisa. Dessa forma, espera-se apresentar uma contribuição para a compreensão da trajetória de Brizola e para a compreensão do exílio enquanto um espaço político, bem como suas especificidades para os membros das elites política.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2018-04-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/index.php/iberoamericana/article/view/2866110.15448/1980-864X.2018.1.28661Estudos Ibero-Americanos; Vol. 44 No. 1 (2018): Dossier - Photography, visual culture and history: theoretical and methodological perspectives; 213-227Estudos Ibero-Americanos; Vol. 44 Núm. 1 (2018): Dosier - Fotografía, cultura visual y historia: perspectivas teóricas y metodológicas; 213-227Estudos Ibero-Americanos; v. 44 n. 1 (2018): Dossiê - Fotografia, Cultura Visual e História: perspectivas teóricas e metodológicas; 213-2271980-864X0101-406410.15448/1980-864X.2018.1reponame:Estudos Ibero-Americanosinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/index.php/iberoamericana/article/view/28661/16680Copyright (c) 2018 Teresa Cristina Schneider Marqueshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMarques, Teresa Cristina Schneider2018-08-13T16:52:11Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/28661Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/index.php/iberoamericanaPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/index.php/iberoamericana/oaieditora.periodicos@pucrs.br||eia@pucrs.br1980-864X0101-4064opendoar:2018-08-13T16:52:11Estudos Ibero-Americanos - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false |
